High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Vida Chenoweth (born 1929 in Enid, Oklahoma) was the first professional solo classical marimbist. Also a noted ethnomusicologist and linguist, she was inducted into The Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 1985 for her contributions to those three fields. Chenoweth made her solo debut in Chicago in 1956, followed by a successful recital in New York. She subsequently gave concerts all over the world. She is credited with being the first to perform polyphonic music on the marimba and with bringing it to public acceptance as a serious concert instrument, doing for the marimba what Pablo Casals did for the cello and Andres Segovia did for the guitar. She is the only concert marimbist who has appeared as guest soloist in Carnegie Hall with a major orchestra.
